Two very BAD amendments were proposed to this Bill today and will be voted
on by YOUR representative in Olympia in the next day of two.
If either is adopted, SB5366 must die!!! YOU have done too good of a job
so far to let this happen now.
Representative Upthegrove's amendment would along with other things, open
the door to closing every ORV area in the state.
Representative Armstrong's amendment kicks two wheeled vehicles to the curb
and makes it a quad only bill. Really nice considering motorcyclists did the
heavy lifting to get this bill as far as its gotten!
The Senate passed this Bill 41 to 5 to allow limted us of OHV's on county
roads which will also open most forest roads to OHV use. Now we are up
against a couple of legislators in the House who are trying to poison it.
Please do not let this happen when we are almost there with this Bill.

SAMPLE TEXT (use if it you like!) You can just copy and paste it into the
form on the hot linked site:
Please do not support either of the proposed amendments by Representatives
Armstrong or Upthegrove to SB 5366.
The OHV users worked very hard in the Senate to develop a good Bill for all
OHV users and the rural communities that really need the tourism dollars.
The Senate passed it with a vote of 41 to 5, a super majority.
Please vote against these proposed amendments and support the Bill as it
stands.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
